There la an immense sea of flames behind the retiring Russian armies caused by burning houses and crop. Oeneral Mlachenko is followed by well organised detachments of Cossacks whose duty it is to burn everything behind the army. "When the Honveds tried to enter Kry- low in pursuit of the Russians every street waa aflame. They were unable to pass through the huge furnace and lost many precious hours In going round tlie town by Indirect roads across fields. "When the Austro-Hungorlans arrived at Vladimir-Yolynskyt they found the town burning and the town of Verba also was blaslna. Every village on tne Volyn- skyl plain aa tar aa Kovel waa In flames. The Austro-Hungarlan troops had no shelter for days. "The roads are Indescribably cut up and obstructed. Convoys arrived a day and a half late. It would take fifty soldiers to draw one cart out of a mud hole. "Thousands of men worked upon repairs on the railway from Sokol to Vladiinlr Volynskyl, and If the road had not been ropalrex) In time we would have met with disaster."
